Halfords Microfibre Wash and Polish Mitt

Price: £6.49 Contact: 0845 762 6625, www.halfords.com

The different demands of washing and polishing mean this mitt was always going to be a compromise. So why does Halfords combine them? The chain store sells mitts for each job at under £4. Absorbency was low for a microfibre and it didn’t glide over grime like rivals. Plus, while it lifted dirt well, removing it from the short pile proved tricky.
